Is it just me or is Wolftstar like a gateway drug into marauders fanfiction???
“They were only roommates” but then they pull out Neil and Todd or Sirus and Remus
just made a marauders dr and im learning all the lore im so obsessed its sad 😁
Expanding on this post because I still love it:
They meet in university. I’m not sure what classes their respective degrees would have in common, but they both seem like they’d take psychology, so I guess they meet there.
Remus has been subjected to cumulative days of rants and speeches about Sirius’ degrees (he claims it’s to prepare for his classes, but it’s really just because he’s a nerd who likes geeking out).
Remus, after staying up too late preparing lessons for too many days in a row just before summer break ends, has absolutely spoken to Sirius like he’s six years old.
Remus has all of the gifts from his students on his desk. He’s a really good teacher, so he gets a lot. They’ve spilled over to Sirius’ desk now, and he likes complaining about how he wishes his students gave him cards.
They communicate so well. Remus is a pretty good communicator because he learned how to be in hopes of being a good example for the kids, and his experience in helping children explain their emotions is very helpful. Sirius is shit at talking about his needs/wants/feelings, so Remus uses the same tactics he uses on the first graders to talk with him. It’s surprisingly effective
Give me elementary school teacher Remus who teaches first graders and university professor Sirius who teaches physics and mechanical engineering. Give me Remus who takes out a feelings wheel and goes over basic communication skills with Sirius, because he never properly learned them as a child (namely due to Walburga and Orion’s abuse). Give me Sirius who helps Remus make little birthday and Christmas gifts for his students. Just… give me elementary school teacher Remus and university professor Sirius.
Sirius Black with big, callused hands. With short nails so they don’t chip when he works. With rings on his thick and long fingers whenever he goes out but his wedding ring constantly. With black nail polish on his nails. With starburst scars on his knuckles form punching things. With cared-for nail beds and good skin despite how much he works.
Remus Lupin with long, thin hands. With no calluses because he doesn’t like physical work. With thin scars over his fingers and palm from transformations. With bitten nails and torn cuticles. With dry skin and hangnails. With nothing but his engagement and wedding rings on his hands. With boney joints that jut out and bent fingers.
Wait maybe I should draw my own Wolfstar fan art...
HMMMMMM
But homework...
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
In my (unpopular) opinion, I think that Sirius tops. It also annoys me that I can't find enough fanfictions written or art drawn this way. Thank you for you time.
